i'm trying to create a flash counter.each time the movie clip is loaded, it loads an external variable (number of seconds).so lets say the variable is:
secondsToEnd = 260;
the timer will be working until it gets to zero, then the movie clip will go to frame number 2.after a refresh of the page, the "banner" will check again for a new xml variable. creating the counter (after receiving the variable secondsToEnd) till it gets to zero.
I am wondering how to create a basic flash counter.
As in, when something happens, I want a variable to equal 1, and then, if something else happens, I want that same variable to then be 2.
Etc .etc.
I think there is something to do with ++ , but I'm unclear about the syntax.

View 3 RepliesI am making a game that utilizes a keypress to play a movie clip. It runs perfectly but I am trying to add to the script. After twenty key presses play a different movie.In case that doesn't make sense this is a little more in depth description, The game is a boxing game and when Key "0" is pressed a movie clip plays(showing the boxer punching) that part is fine. I am trying to have it to where after Key "0" is pressed 20 times, it will que a movie clip to kick in(the boxer that is being punched will fall down).
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to create a "counter" element that uses a formatted dynamic text box to count up in .1 increments 3 times a second, starting from a specified value (so viewer would see 3.1, then 3.2...etc.)
Here's the code so far:
var counter:Number;
counter = 3.0
counterText.text=(String(counter));
var timer:Timer = new Timer(300);

What I can't figure out is what should go in the function area, to add .1 seconds each time the timer cycles.

View 9 RepliesI am using flash 8 and actionscript 2.0 to build this application. I am trying to compile a page hit counter that is only activated when the timeline hits a certain position. I thought I had it with the following script. But the count would randomly get reset back to zero.
Here is the PHP script:
PHP Code:
<?php
//Reading the file
$count = file_get_contents("main_counter.txt");
//Increasing the count
$count = explode("=", $count);
Code] .....
With this attempt I used the "loadVaribales" method to communicate with the PHP and TEXT files. Here is the code in the first frame of the timeline:
Code:
this.loadVariables("counters/main_counter.txt?num="+random(999999));
Here is the code in the second frame:
Code:
this.loadVariables("counters/main_counter.php?num="+random(999999));
It works awesome for a few weeks then the count gets reset to zero. Why the contents of the text file are randomly getting deleted.
Can I have a counter in flash? I don't know if it's possible in ActionScript. What about a Javascript version?

I have a flash ad on my site that cycles through about about 8-10 products each with their own buy button that adds the item to the shopping cart and takes them to the shopping cart page. What I want to do is create some kind of counter or tracker that keeps track of how many times each product was clicked on. I would prefer an external file to be generated and updated per new click. Is this possible?

View 7 RepliesIt's not that noticeable at first, but my counter skips over to zero and ignores the nines. How can I get my counter to not skipping the nines?
Display Object.It's a column descending from 0-9. 'The object and the values appear correct except the skip'

I've looked all over the web and everyone can teach you how to make a timer for your game or a countdown, but I can't seem to find out how to add time to an already counting timer. So here is my counter class:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Stage;
import flash.text.TextField;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.utils.Timer;
[Code] .....
That works without any issues or problems and just keeps counting upwards at a speed of 100ms, what I want to know is how to add say 30 seconds if something happens in my game, say you kill an enemy for example.
